The tensile strength of steel and the compressive strength of concrete work together to sustain stresses over considerable spans. The reinforcing steel can be in the form of rods, bars, or mesh. The invention of reinforced concrete in the 19th century revolutionized the construction industry, and concrete became one of the world’s most common building materials.

Precast concrete, also known as prefabricated concrete is an alternative to cast-in-situ concrete. It is produced at an off-site controlled factory environment where moulds are used to cast elements such as slabs, walls, columns, beams, etc which are then transported to the construction site for assembly. This method eliminates the need for time-consuming on-site casting and curing, allowing for faster project completion.
